Digital privacy in South Africa

With widespread internet access and a long tradition of free expression, South Africa is a relative oasis of internet freedom on the African continent. You can get use ExpressVPN to

Occasionally, however, legislation does come up that threatens the digital rights of South Africans:

The Protection of State Information Bill

Also called the Secrecy Bill, the
Protection of State Information Bill
is an attempt to regulate the spread of state information that as a consequence pits the interests of the government
against the people's right to free expression.
Although President Zuma refused to sign the bill in 2013 and sent it back to the National Assembly, critics say the bill still has the potential to limit journalists' access to information and discourage whistleblowers from exposing corruption.
